On the way the bellboy couldn't figure out how to split $5 evenly between 3 men, so he gave each man a $1 and kept the other $2 for himself...

This meant that the 3 men each paid $9 for the room, which is a total of $27 add the $2 that the bellboy kept = $29. Where is the other dollar? ...

Phil,

I use that exact puzzle on my site: www.senior2senior.org. Anyone solving the puzzle wins a Senior Pride car magnet. Since I know the answer I'll refrain from spelling it out except to say if you can add there ain't no stinkin left over dollar.

BTW, you should see some of the answers I get. Hilarious...

Tom
